Sharpen those pencils and launch ’em at the ceiling in victory, because it’s official: The X-Files will return for Season 11, Fox announced Thursday.
Even better, the episode order for the revival’s continuation is 10, four more than the six-episode Season 10.
Series creator Chris Carter will executive-produce the season, and stars David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson have signed on to return as Mulder and Scully, as well.
The “event series” — Fox’s words — will air during the 2017-2018 season.
